    Perhaps, but if workers know that so much of the work is being done by AI, I would think they would push for higher compensation since the money would otherwise go straight to the top.

    Granted that sort of bullshit has been going on since man invented money. But I think this might be the change where people finally realize how greedy people at the top really are.

      Workers will try, and some will win but many will lose. The company switching to AI assisted work is already going to be laying off a sizable portion of their workforce. If anything wages are going to go down due to the productivity gains as hiring will be easier.

      Now if workers have a strong and useful union, they might have the leverage to negotiate favorable terms. But without that, the benefits of technological capital does not go to the workers.

      I hope that’s how it works out. I guess it will depend on how the balance of power is set up between workers and employers in your region and profession. In practice I’m worried that it won’t work out well for most of us.

      The rich folks still need everyone earning money though otherwise nobody will buy their stuff so hopefully some kind of solution is reached that can benefit everyone.

        To be fair, if we could achieve a fully autonomous robotic workforce (read: roboslaves) that can do everything a human can do, it would go one of two ways:

        1. Everyone benefits from the reduction in labor needs and humanity works toward a post scarcity future

        2. The wealthy hoard the workforce, and keep everyone else under their boot.

        Which do you think would be more likely?
